I cut my cotton production back to

Increase Expected In Southeast Acres

 "I cut my cotton production back to a more manageable acre figure when corn prices jumped up," he says. "I had always grown some corn but not as much as I have now. I had gotten to the point of really having too many cotton acres, so it has helped me do a better job growing cotton."

Webb says he likes having corn in the rotation with cotton and peanuts, which also helps to spread out the busy times of planting and harvest.

"I am in on a co-op gin, so we keep cotton in our mix," he says. "It has been tough, but now it will be much better with prices moving up."
